Additionally, he was a Research Consultant for the show's creator, Gene Roddenberry.
Hailing from Glendale, California, Vardaman spent a good part of his life in San Jose. He grew up watching Star Trek: The Original Series, becoming a huge fan of the series. He never dreamed that he would become a part of the Star Trek universe himself.

Less than two weeks later, while signing up with casting, he was spotted and approached for a job on Star Trek: The Next Generation. As it turns out, the man originally approached for the job was unavailable, prompting the need for a replacement. Despite some initial reluctance from the wardrobe department, Vardaman was fitted with an operations yellow Starfleet uniform and reported for work the following day.Did You Know that celebrities like Ashley Judd, Teri Hatcher, Nikki Cox, Jason Alexander, Tom Morello, Joan Collins, Dean Stockwell, Mick Fleetwood, Kelsey Grammer, Stephen Hawking, Whoopi Goldberg, Iggy Pop, Vanessa Williams, Kirsten Dunst, Andy Dick, Peter Weller, Teri Garr, The Rock, James Avery, Kristanna S.
